[HealthyTribes] Announcing the release of the TPEP RFA and Healthy Communities Continuation Applications

[Freewynn Sabrina L]

Dear Tribal Health Administrators,


The Health Promotion and Chronic Disease Prevention Program (HPCDP) of the Oregon Health Authority announces the release of the 2014-15 Tribal and County Tobacco Prevention and Education Program (TPEP) Request for Applications and the Healthy Communities Implementation Program Continuation Application. These documents will guide Local Health Departments (LHDs) to write work plans which implement evidence-based best practices for commercial tobacco prevention and education programs and for prevention, early detection, and self-management of chronic diseases. The documents are available through HPCDP Connection here: https://partners.health.oregon.gov/partners/HPCDPConnection/Pages/index.aspx

with the username: HPCDP and password: Communities12



Information about the Tribal TPEP Request for Applications will be shared in-person during the February 10 training at Salashan. A webinar to review the Healthy Communities Continuation Application will take place on February 6 from 11:00 AM to noon. The webinar registration link and call in number will be shared via the tribal listserve.



HPCDP Connection has been updated with new and streamlined resources. These will be helpful in writing responses to the applications and in accomplishing current work.



Please notify your staff about the availability of these documents. HPCDP will also notify LHD coordinators of the RFA and Continuation Application release via our listserves.



Best,



Sabrina Freewynn
